Pencil Spin

For a fun game for family home evening follow the directions for pencil spin.

1. Cut out each item under Things to Do or copy each one on a separate card.

2. Mix the items up and place them in a paper bag or other container so that they can’t be seen.

3. Have players sit around a table or in a circle on the floor.

4. Place a pencil in the center and choose one player to spin the pencil. When the pencil stops, the person it points to draws one item from the paper bag and does what it says. Then it is his turn to spin the pencil.
